The town of Dungog was devastated by floods earlier this year, and the images saturated the news sites around the country for weeks. While the water has subsided, the recovery effort is still underway, and this year's running festival will aid the Dungog Shire Community Centre Inc.
Dungog hosts an annual Cross-country fun run, with four categories. A half marathon for the more serious athletes, a twelve kilometre run and an easy six kilometres for the kids. There's even a category for prams and pooches, so there really is something for everyone.
On Sunday the 2nd of August, get out and enjoy the carnival atmosphere, with face painting and a jumping castle, or just tuck into a well earned breakfast from the sausage sizzle.
Registrations are now open, or just make a donation if you can't make a weekend of it.
There's plenty of accommodation to suit all bank balances, from farmhouses on Stayz to the local pubs and motels. Head up north, two and a half hours from Sydney for a weekend in the picturesque town in the countryside. Feel extra virtuous with some exercise for a good cause, and you never know, you may come home with a medal!
